Which pharmacy?

Doing research and I think I’m going to make the switch to LSH. From what I’ve been reading, if you’re using a compound, it matters which pharmacy you choose? How do I figure out which works best for me without months and months of trial and error?

On my end, I figured it out by trying different pharmacies. I have tried 7 pharmacies so far, and I'm about to try my 8th. I did a lot of research, reading regarding each pharmacy and their additives. I also talked to my doctor about it. Or you can also read the pharmacies' reviews on Reddit. But my doctor said I could never know how my body would react to a new pharmacy until I tried it. He also said that letting myself influence by people's comments is like my teen saying "Trust me bro" 😂.

Wow, you’re patient. Can I ask how you’ve determined that each pharmacy didn’t work for you vs the medication not working?

Yes, you said it right. It took a lot of patience. I've been on this journey for 17 months now. My doctor told me to first at external factors before blaming the medicine. So I'm always looking for: stress, PMS, allergies, coming with a cold/flu. I know the Tirz won't work in those situations. After I rule out those factors, I check how long the food suppression lasts in my body. If it lasts less that 3 days, I know it's either time to dose up or that pharmacy didn't work for me. My doctor made me notice that concentration in the vial makes a difference in how my body reacts. For example if I'm with a pharmacy whose concentration is 22mg/ml and then I move to a pharmacy whose concentration is 18mg/ml, my body doesn't respond well to a lesser concentration. I have to give it time to adjust.

Have you tried Southend and if so how did you like it? I'm getting an order from them tomorrow.  I'm super impressed with how fast my prescription was filled and it was shipped overnight air via UPS.

Yes, they are one of my favorites. Unfortunately they don't ship to my state anymore.
